Pierce: I don’t think Kobe is the best player. I’m the best player. There’s a line that separates having confidence and being conceited. I don’t cross that line but I have a lot of confidence in myself.

Wow, talk about giving your boy a pass…

If Kobe said, “I don’t think Pierce is the best player. I’m the best player. There’s a line that separates having confidence and being conceited. I don’t cross that line but I have a lot of confidence in myself,” this site would be aflame in judgment.

There is a lot lost in translation. Unless Paul Pierce has been working on his Espanol, I don’t put much value in the translation. Besides, if you spend a few minutes reading the interview, something should strike you immediately – it’s not even in his “voice.”

HAHA!!! Paul Pierce the greatest? Whatever! There’s so many other players I would put before him. Did anyone notice that he pooped his pants during the finals? Hahah funny stuff.

“paul pierc the best player in the world? shit on that guy ! hes just being too confident with himself.. i don’t if think if he play one on on with kobe, i think kobe will makes him as MVP toy”

willandhernan - July 30, 2008 at 2:42 am

Pierce the best player? maybe in the wnba. He’s play is pump, fake and draw a foul. Rondo’s better than him.

ben - July 30, 2008 at 3:10 am

Its funny to me that Paul Pierce can brag after a single championship when Kobe’s won it 3 times. Not to mention The year after they acquire Allen & Garnett. Kobe was able to make a young team championship contenders with a dislocated pinky & still playing in the Olympics (wheres Pierce?). All Pierce got to show for was a sprained ankle… I mean knee. Lets see how the Celtics will look after Bynum next year.

Chris - July 30, 2008 at 3:27 am

pierce is a fuckin joke dis guy is a dipshit mothefucker, he tihnk he can say he da best and btr den da MVP wen he jus won one ring w allen and garnett? gimme a break dis guy is garbage, how he faked his shit in the 1st game, wait till next year paully and celtics yall goin down

This Cain fag can’t write for shit. You mean to tell me that Pierce can win a championship without Allen & Garnett. I think your smoking some serious Crack!!! Get your shit straight and your writing as well.

GO Lakers!!!

Chris - July 30, 2008 at 5:16 am

It’s funny how serious everyone takes sports. Paul Pierce and his team won, so they can say anything they want. Pierce is a more respectable player than Bryant however, because Pierce does not have the pompus attitude. His statement may seem pompus, but when faced with a stupid question from the media, Pierce gave a great answer to stir the pot. In a 1 on 1 situation, Pierce would get the best of Bryant because Kobe can not handle better than average defense. As for being the best player in the world, I don’t believe that any of the guys we see on a regular basis deserve that title. A lot of them have shown signs of greatness, but everyone has limitations. Just remember when Michael Jordan played. He was unstoppable. You knew that he was going to get the ball, and he was going to score. There is no like that anymore. That’s what it takes to be the best player in the world.

Lakerhater - July 30, 2008 at 12:22 pm

Here’s what a lot of you don’t… and never will…. understand.

When you’re a player the caliber of Paul Pierce… you HAVE to think you’re the best.

Is anyone going to tell me that they’re going to walk on the floor and think “oh… that guy’s better than me!” No… you’re not. At least…. not if you’re a winner. Losers go out there and approach games like someone else is better. Winner think they’re the best… and then they go try to prove it.

So relax. Its why I didn’t think much of it. Because a player always has to think he’s the best. Paul just said it. The only thing Paul did wrong was not understand that everything you say everywhere will get around. Once upon a time… an interview with a Spanish paper would stay in Spain. Now assholes like me plaster it everywhere

oh yeah it was fucking awesome when we got garnett, allen, and RONDO. Rondo? you have to be fucking kidding me, “what a joke”.

it just shows that half these lakers fans dont know shit. i guess being a bandwagon lakers fan includes being some sort of bandwagon celtics hater. i just wish they would all realize the lakers lost and arent going anywhere, and jump off already.

another tim - July 30, 2008 at 12:36 pm

Lakerhater. The C’s have been a sub 500 team or maybe a 500 team for what? 15 years!!! The Lakers have never been below 500 since Kobe’s been there. The C’s are in for a shock when the Lakers have an actual center in their line up. I’m glad for you, that you got this Championship because it isnt going to repeat. The Lakers are going to have the longest front court in NBA, are still the best passers and still have the the best player. Pierce is good, hes maybe in the top 20, maybe 19th?

What a joke - July 30, 2008 at 12:41 pm

mvp and nba championship that makes him the best player in the world for now. at least till next year.stop hating you lakers fans.

Im a Boston fan.. but come on…. really? that tool Radmansandwich was gaurding PP most of the series has a lot of do with his success. Lakers were out played yes, Kobe doesnt deny it either. “What a joke” yea.. Bynum changes things too.

Joey P - July 30, 2008 at 12:48 pm

What I’m writing in this comment has probably already been said, but since most commenters on this site are only semi-literate, I couldn’t read them all.

First, I’m pretty sure Pierce crossed the line from confidence to conceited. Good for him. If being a delusional moron works for him, there’s nothing wrong with that.

Second, the Celtics were a stacked team. If they didn’t win the championship with that line-up, it would have been embarrassing.

Third, it’s ridiculous to compare Pierce to Kobe. Kobe was basically doing it all himself in LA, while Pierce had an All-Star team at his back. Maybe if they played a game of 1 on 1, then this discussion would make sense.

Jim - July 30, 2008 at 12:50 pm

Paul needed 2 additional All-Stars to get it done! Jim, you are correct. Very stacked team. They won what? 30 games last year! hahaha! Wait till Bynum plays again.

Lakers4life - July 30, 2008 at 12:59 pm

Analyzing just pure skills, Kobe is the better player. But he’s also a whiney, selfish bitch devoid of any leadership ability. Pierce was money in the Finals – where was Kobe?

Get at em Paul! Fuck the Fakers and they’re starbucks drinkin’ fake-ass fans. Paul Pierce = Best player in the NBA, gets where he wants on the court, has a killer midrange and long range J, and he proved this postseason that he can stop LeBron and Kobe Cryant.

GTFOH if ur mad

HA! - July 30, 2008 at 1:08 pm

and to the tards that think Gasol/Fisher/Odom are not legit help for that rapist, I guess you just don’t know basketball.

Pierce Finals MVP total > Kobe Cryant’s Finals MVP total

Funny how KG, PP, and Ray Allen are “washed up” to Lakers fans before the Finals, but after they’re team got absolutely torched, they’re suddenly wise to what the Big 3 are. Can’t have it both ways LA.

Mike (Boston) - July 30, 2008 at 1:11 pm

Well if hes the best player in the world he would have to be right?

Anyway, this is just amusing to me. I’m effin with u all. Anyone who knows how the media works, knows that there is no way Paul actually said that word for word. Show me a video or some audio with recognizable cocky tone and I’ll believe it.

Til then, just have fun with these morons freakin out

This team is going to implode… Kobe has NEVER said he’s the best but he is, anyone outside the RED GAY ARMY thinks so, followed by 10 other players before PP. This dudes gone mental, his team basically was below averge till it was saved by Garnett and Allen. I guess getting stabbed in the face still doesnt change your attitude. Secondly, I think everyone is forgetting that PP and KB are good friends. They train together in the off season.

If we had football team they would beat tha Pats too

LA - July 30, 2008 at 2:57 pm

I was talking to the rest of the team today, and we think that we can finally take a game in a series against the Sox in the postseason this October.

Perhaps in 09 we can actually stretch it out and make it a five game series. And jeez, I’ll tell ya, we may even be able to advance by 2010.

Whereas Paul Pierce in the past has demonstrated more than a little unfounded/misplaced ego (running around, then jumping up onto the scorer’s table and playing the crowd after hitting a game winner … in the first EXHIBITION game!) or habitually referring to himself in the third person as a “great” player (really, does anyone out there EVER, EVER remember hearing Russell, Cousy, Heinsohn, Havlicek, Cowens, Bird, McHale, etc. refer to themselves that way even ONCE?).

This past year, playing the role he is best suited for, over-achieving younger brother, he could at times be great without the pressure of having to be great.

I think that he got that, and though he still may think he is just as great a player as Bryant, I don’t believe that he would claim that he was the best player in the world.

The interview, as it appears on the El Mundo Sportivo web site, never even poses the question that you assert they did. Consequently, Pierce never answers it, and surely never is quoted saying that he is the best player.

Unless you can document your source for this quote, it has no credibility. And if that’s the case you have generated an undeserved negative reaction towards a player who seems to be maturing into a classic Celtic star.

JACK - July 30, 2008 at 3:37 pm

I think people need to get a grip on reality. The facts are that Celtics won the championships and Pierce was the mvp. So what if he pumped faked and drew the foul. Thats what i call smart, and if thats what it takes to win, then so be it, coz bitching and wining certainly came second best. Im not even a Celtics fan, so all ya’ll need to get a grip coz on paper, it does not say that Celtics won but kobe is the greatest player, coz if he is then lakers would have won. Simple logic.

I live in Los Angeles and all I heard after the finals was how you guys need a player like Artest in your line up because you have Kobe and a bunch of soft ass Euro’s, so dont pretend like that trade is nothing to be concerned about. Keep hoping that Bynum is going to be your savior, please. Nothing like banking your future on a 21 year old center coming off a devestating knee injury.

That clip is all you need to know on how soft your purple and gold fairies really are.

Before KG, Allen, and Posey played for the Celtics nobody even knew you guys existed for the last 9 years. Pierce is a great player and we don’t know who is the best but everyone can agree its not Pierce. Winning one championship is an accomplishment but lets see if you guys can defend it. Its been a while since Boston has tasted a championship so you might how difficult it is. Just ask the Spurs.

That is some AMAZING crack that Pierce is smoking. He really believes that he is better than Kobe, Lebron, KG, and CP. That is the real definition of a pipe dream.

Paul Pierce is a douche. yeah he is the man now!!! after they get ray allen and kevin garnett on the team. Such a jackass thing to say. Notice how tom brady is THE MAN! but never has to tell anyone about it? bc he actually is the man. Pierce is just a punk bitch who hypes himself up after winning a title (almost being knocked out by the friggin hawks!) bc he is insecure that it took him so long. I hate Kobe too. Pierce is the most dramatic little bitch in the league. everything is the “most extreme” with him! “I am so hurt”, “the best game ever!”, “the best player in the world”. Shut up you drama queen.

PaulPierceisaDouche - July 31, 2008 at 11:44 am

During the finals the only players crying were on the Celtics, especially PP, when Kobe busted his ankles and caused him to collide into another C and then hit the floor. PP was so embarrassed he couldn’t get up and had to be carried off the court. Kobe could have easily faked an injury to his finger, but an MRI proved it to be true.

Pierce is not even the best player on the team…… Garnett is more of a legit argument. Don’t forget that pussy whines about every scratch he gets. Sounds like Mike O will give a rim job to his faggot ass Bostonians. Regardless on a ring, Go ahead and talk shit all you want Faggot ass Bostonians the lakers held their standards 3 years straight and don’t even bring up about Kobe not winning it without Shaq. Pierce couldn’t get his own team over .500. why is this even an argument.

Fuck Celtics, Patriots, Bruins & Red Sox… even the Revolution

Welcome to L.A Manny

Paul Pierce should get stabbed 11 more times for saying he’s the best player in the world!

Pierce = lameduck - August 1, 2008 at 12:08 am

Hey Redsarmy how do you know about the MRI? were you in the training room sucking on pierce’s balls? Did you swallow too? I think Pierce is pathetic. I thought KG would win the MVP
He’s way more deserving than that fag. I think is because he acted like a pussy in game 1 which I think people notice he was limping on the wrong leg. Kobe is in the Olympics in China, If I were pierce I would Stab my self in the Balls becauase he don’t Deserve em.

I know…. I know…. who the fuck am I to let things like facts get in the way of calling someone a fag?

You guys can talk all you want…. bottom line is that in a few months we’re going to be posting a shit load of pictures of the Celtics raising the banner…. and you guys are wearing Western Conference Champions shirts. The more you talk…. the worse you look. Pierce was the Finals MVP… Kobe is a loser. The Lakers blew the biggest lead ever… the Celtics had a parade.

Even MJ is shitting on Kobe now. So keep talking and making the same “fag” jokes that EVERY Lakers fan makes when they come over here. This has been one of the most viewed basketball posts in the world this week…. so now everyone knows what you’re about.

[…] Pierce created a firestorm of controversy earlier this week when he confidently stated that he was the best player in the NBA. Comments of this nature didn’t surprise us, considering the Celtics capped a dominating […]

I am not a Laker fan. Big ups to the Celtics winning. I just think Pierce is a drama queen who over exagerates everything with hyper-descrepitive adjectives. You cant deny that he has been kind of a tool since winning. Im happy for KG and Allen, but Pierce needs to shut the f*** up and just be happy. it took him forever to win one, which is cool for him, but dont go talking like your the new Jordan. Thats what im saying. Pierce needs to stop being so insecure and douchey for a few weeks.

PierceisaDouche - August 1, 2008 at 11:50 am

My bad.

In an earlier post I gave Pierce the benefit of the doubt concerning his outrageous claim, figuring that no one could be so stupidly arrogant.

It appears that Pierce is congenitally unable to resist such inflated opinions of himself. I thought that his experience alongside Garnett, Posey, and Allen, players of maturity and perspective, might have changed that. It seems, not a bit.

Post- Garnet, Allen, Posey, and “ubuntu,” Pierce is the “best player in the NBA.”

Pre- Garnett, allen, Posey, and “ubuntu,” Pierce is the guy who chucked threes at will, got stripped on that reverse move in the lane more times than I can count, never ran out ahead of the ball, never got back after his own sloppy turnovers, coughed up his shot at Team USA, etc.

Better than Bryant, James, Wade, Howard, Garnett? Answer me this old theoritical: If you’re starting a team from scratch, do you really take Pierce over ANY of those guys?

Being a Celtics fan since Russell joined the team, I truly hope that this stupid, self-centered comment does not hurt the team this coming season.

JACK - August 1, 2008 at 1:23 pm

That’s why Kobe is the only player compared to Jordon and “what are the analyst saying?” I don’t know how many times Jordon announced he was the best after winning his first ring or as a matter of fact, any other NBA player after winning their first rings. Jordon and Kobe can talk on the same line, Pierce “negative” doesn’t even have the number.

Doc - August 1, 2008 at 4:28 pm

Hey Redsarmy,

You talk like a bitch. Can you at least admit that KG is better than Pierce. After all, that is what this blog is about. Why do you call yourself Redsarmy? Are you a Spudnik? Kobe has the opportunity to play for the Gold, that is way better than a stupid banner. Thats world reputation Turd. If he was the best player in the world, how come he’s not in China? Instead he’s home giving you a rim job.
